Sophia Lisovskaya grew up in Russia, has been a scholar under some of the finest musical professors that Moscow and London have to offer and, in the course of her career, has toured extensively, both internationally and in the UK. She has played many prestigious venues, including St James’ Palace, St John's Smith Square, and The Wigmore Hall in London. She has also performed, as part of a documentary film featuring both composer and musician, on Tchaikovsky's own piano in his country home in Klin.

Reviews for Sophia’s performances and recordings are fulsome in their praise for her talent, technique, sensitivity, and the “poetic gift” that she possesses, and her love for her Russian heritage shines in the pieces that she often chooses to play.
